So we're seriously looking at getting this jeep for my wife and I was just looking for some actual feedback from the jeep community so any input or experiences with this rig is greatly appreciated http://allenmotorsfs.com/mobile/Vehi...b-a0d4bb5f6383

 

Looks nice. The 4.7 V8 does not handle abuse very well, you must keep on top of the maintenance, especially the cooling system.

 

How about light off roading mostly trails no rocks

 

I would install a skid plate for the oil pan. Without the front differential as the lowest point, the engine needs protection. This is the first year with independent front suspension.

 

Or find a really nice 04 which is the last year of the wj body.

 

$10k with well over 100k miles seems really high for an 11 year old SUV. The Fair market range on it would be $7.6k to $9.4k from a dealer. You could get that car for around $7k from a private party easily. Whatever you do, talk them down. I guarantee they paid no more than $6k for it.
